after 12 weeks, the strictest law in the country. but earlier this week, north dakota outdid it. they passed the heartbeat bills, banning abortions after just six weeks. all of this is happening as the republicans are increasingly agreeing with more abortion rights. let me get back to you, and the question here, stephanie is, why are they doing this? why are they pushing back on rights? we don't have to agree with abortion. a lot of people don't like it, i don't like it, period, as a practice. certainly don't like it as birth control, certainly not as a first resort, by any means. but when the law changes to squeeze down that window, where a woman, a girl, a teenager discovers that she's pregnant and only has a little time to decide this thing -- >> and in six weeks? >> when do you know? when do you normally know? >> i have a lot of friends who didn't know as six weeks. >> give me the politics of this. why are they doing this? >> well, they are controlled by incredibly conservative arm of the republican party right now that are drivi
